21st Dec: Meet the Curator Talk & Tour: A Tudor Christmas
Join us this festive season for a talk given by our museum curator, Hannah Mathews and explore the magical world of a Tudor Christmas.
Did the Tudors have Christmas Trees?
Who was the Lord of Misrule?
What is wassailing?
And who ate roast boars head decorated in gold leaf?
This talk will take you on a journey through Christmases past and explore how the men of the Mary Rose would have celebrated the yuletide season. Find out what Henry VIII could have expected as a Christmas gift and learn about the magical and often very merry traditions from the Tudor Christmas that still exist in our own Christmas today. This specialist talk will include a glass of mulled wine and will be followed by a behind the scenes tour of the museum.
Bring a little Tudor merriment and magic to your Christmas season this year and join us at The Mary Rose. Tickets are limited – Book now to secure your place!
